Previously, we ra_sum_pages to pre-read contiguous pages as more
as possible, and if we fail to alloc more pages, an ENOMEM error
will be reported upstream, even though we have alloced some pages
yet. In fact, we can use the available pages to do the job partly,
and continue the rest in the following circle. Only reporting ENOMEM
upstream if we really can not alloc any available page.
And another fix is ignoring dealing with the following pages if an

This issue was revealed by Phoronix tests results:
http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=linux_314_ssdfs&num=2
It turns out that we need to assign WRITE_SYNC to the node writes, if

"writeback: fix dirtied pages accounting on redirty
De-account the accumulative dirty counters on page redirty.

This patch adds an sysfs entry to control dir_level used by the large directory.
The description of this entry is:
dir_level This parameter controls the directory level to
support large directory. If a directory has a
number of files, it can reduce the file lookup
latency by increasing this dir_level value.
Otherwise, it needs to decrease this value to
reduce the space overhead. The default value is 0.

This patch introduces an i_dir_level field to support large directory.
Previously, f2fs maintains multi-level hash tables to find a dentry quickly
from a bunch of chiild dentries in a directory, and the hash tables consist of
the following tree structure as below.
In Documentation/filesystems/f2fs.txt,
----------------------
A : bucket
B : block
N : MAX_DIR_HASH_DEPTH
----------------------
level #0 | A(2B)
|
level #1 | A(2B) - A(2B)
|
level #2 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B)
. | . . . .
level #N/2 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - ... - A(2B)
. | . . . .
level #N | A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - ... - A(4B)
But, if we can guess that a directory will handle a number of child files,
we don't need to traverse the tree from level #0 to #N all the time.
Since the lower level tables contain relatively small number of dentries,
the miss ratio of the target dentry is likely to be high.
In order to avoid that, we can configure the hash tables sparsely from level #0
like this.
level #0 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B)
level #1 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - ... - A(2B)
. | . . . .
level #N/2 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - ... - A(2B)
. | . . . .
level #N | A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - ... - A(4B)
With this structure, we can skip the ineffective tree searches in lower level
hash tables.
This patch adds just a facility for this by introducing i_dir_level in
f2fs_inode.

When a new directory is allocated, if an error is occurred, we should truncate

f2fs_add_link()->
init_inode_metadata()->
f2fs_init_acl()->
f2fs_get_acl()->
f2fs_getxattr()->

Also there was a BUG_ON triggered after the fault in
mkdir()->
f2fs_add_link()->
init_inode_metadata()->
remove_inode_page() ->
f2fs_bug_on(inode->i_blocks != 0 && inode->i_blocks != 1);
But, previous patch wasn't perfect to resolve that bug, so the following bug

Finally, this patch resolves all the issues like below.
If an error is occurred after make_empty_dir(),
1. truncate_inode_pages()
The make_bad_inode() prior to iput() will change i_mode to S_IFREG, which
means that f2fs will not decrement fi->dirty_dents during f2fs_evict_inode.
But, by calling it here, we can do that.
2. truncate_blocks()
Preallocated dentry pages are trucated here to sync i_blocks.
3. remove_dirty_dir_inode()
Remove this directory inode from the list.

f2fs_unlink() goes, since there is no valid dentry due to i_size = 4096.
But, still there is one dentry in page->index = 1.

Revert "OF: base: match each node compatible against all given matches first"
Currently, of_match_node compares each given match against all node's
compatible strings with of_device_is_compatible.
To achieve multiple compatible strings per node with ordering from
specific to generic, this requires given matches to be ordered from
specific to generic. For most of the drivers this is not true and also
an alphabetical ordering is more sane there.
Therefore, this patch introduces a function to match each of the node's
compatible strings against all given compatible matches without type and
name first, before checking the next compatible string. This implies
that node's compatibles are ordered from specific to generic while
given matches can be in any order. If we fail to find such a match
entry, then fall-back to the old method in order to keep compatibility.

The first is a fix for the way the ring buffer stores timestamps.
After a restructure of the code was done, the ring buffer timestamp
logic missed the fact that the first event on a sub buffer is to have
a zero delta, as the full timestamp is stored on the sub buffer itself.
But because the delta was not cleared to zero, the timestamp for that
event will be calculated as the real timestamp + the delta from the
last timestamp. This can skew the timestamps of the events and
have them say they happened when they didn't really happen. That's bad.
The second fix is for modifying the function graph caller site.
When the stop machine was removed from updating the function tracing
code, it missed updating the function graph call site location.
It is still modified as if it is being done via stop machine. But it's not.
This can lead to a GPF and kernel crash if the function graph call site
happens to lie between cache lines and one CPU is executing it while
another CPU is doing the update. It would be a very hard condition to
hit, but the result is sever enough to have it fixed ASAP.

Pull twi tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"Two urgent fixes in the tracing utility.
The first is a fix for the way the ring buffer stores timestamps.
After a restructure of the code was done, the ring buffer timestamp
logic missed the fact that the first event on a sub buffer is to have
a zero delta, as the full timestamp is stored on the sub buffer
itself. But because the delta was not cleared to zero, the timestamp
for that event will be calculated as the real timestamp + the delta
from the last timestamp. This can skew the timestamps of the events
and have them say they happened when they didn't really happen.
That's bad.
The second fix is for modifying the function graph caller site. When
the stop machine was removed from updating the function tracing code,
it missed updating the function graph call site location. It is still
modified as if it is being done via stop machine. But it's not. This
can lead to a GPF and kernel crash if the function graph call site
happens to lie between cache lines and one CPU is executing it while
another CPU is doing the update. It would be a very hard condition to
hit, but the result is severe enough to have it fixed ASAP"
